Cade Taylor, eat your heart out. For years, Julia Campbell has lusted from afar after her girlhood crush, Cade Taylor. Now the shoe is on the other foot and Cade is limping along helplessly behind her size seven pumps. Two successful attorneys arguing opposite sides of a high profile DUI manslaughter case, there's more than just a failed affair spirited debates. Between them lies four-year-old Laura with Cade's blue eyes and Julia's black curls. Cade will do anything to get them back -- even if it means losing the biggest case of his life.
EXCERPT "Love-shmove." Julia snorted with disgust and leaned back on her forearms. She propped both feet near her rear-end on the tabletop. Cade sent her a glance under half closed lids, his eyes roaming over her body so hotly she felt like he'd burned her. She drew in a deep breath. "More like lust." "That grew into love," he said gently. "Either way, they are both so overwhelming. Love is just a feeling yet it rules your entire body, takes over your mind and makes you believe..." She trailed off, unable to resist looking at him anymore. His eyes were hooded as he raised the bottle to his lips. He finished it off in three quick swallows. Julia turned away. "Lust, I can understand." She bit her lip. "What's scary is that they are so alike. A body can't tell which is which while in the throes of one or the other." "Have you ever been in lust?" Cade set his empty bottle on the table and leaned back on one elbow. He was eye to eye with her and they were both reclining on a flat surface. Julia tried to think of the question. "Not really." She was terrified he could hear her heart thudding inside her chest. He was so close she saw the golden tips of his long lashes. Did she always know that he had a small cowlick over his right brow? "Then it's safe to assume that you've never been in love, either?" She couldn't tear her eyes from his now. His lazy scrutiny of her face made her breathless. "You've never wanted to touch a man so badly that your soft skin burned hot?" Cade's voice had dropped to just above a whisper. He was not touching her, but Julia felt him all over her body. She shook her head weakly. "You've never wanted to kiss a man so much that you watched his lips move when he talked, wondering how he would taste?" Julia exhaled slowly, unaware she had been holding her breath. "No," she whispered, her eyes dropped to his lips. They were curved into a seductive smile. "Lust isn't so bad," he whispered. He leaned toward her. "It's damn fun to be in lust."
